Abstract
Hip fracture is the most devastating type of osteoporosis-related fracture, and is a major worldwide public health problem with a high socioeconomic burden, morbidity rate, and mortality rate. Thus, it is crucial to uncover the risk factors and protective factors to create a hip fracture prevention strategy. In addition to a briefly review of some well accepted risk and protective factors of hip fracture, this review mainly summarized the recent advances in the identification of emerging risk or protective factors for hip fracture, in terms of regional differences in medical services, diseases, drugs, mechanical load, neuromuscular mass, genes, blood types, cultural differences. This review provides a comprehensive review of the associated factors and effective prevention measures for hip fracture, and discusses issues that need further investigation. These issues include the determination of the influencing mechanism of risk factors triggering hip fracture and their interlinked correlation with other factors, as well as the confirmation or correction of emerging factors associated with hip fracture, particularly those that are still controversial. These recent findings will aid in optimizing the strategy for preventing hip fracture.

[PMID: 36168189 PMCID: PMC9712267 DOI: 10.1002/jbmr.4693] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2022] [Revised: 08/12/2022] [Accepted: 08/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
Frailty is common in older adults with fractures. Osteoporosis medications reduce subsequent fracture, but limited data exist on medication efficacy in frail individuals. Our objective was to determine whether medications reduce the risk of subsequent fracture in frail, older adults. A retrospective cohort of Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries was conducted (2014-2016). We included adults aged ≥65 years who were hospitalized with fractures without osteoporosis treatment. Pre-fracture frailty was defined using claims-based frailty index (≥0.2 = frail). Exposure to any osteoporosis treatment (oral or intravenous bisphosphonates, denosumab, and teriparatide) was ascertained using Part B and D claims and categorized according to the cumulative duration of exposure: none, 1-90 days, and >90 days. Subsequent fractures were ascertained from Part A or B claims. Cause-specific hazard models with time-varying exposure were fit to examine the association between treatment and fracture outcomes, controlling for relevant covariates. Among 29,904 patients hospitalized with fractures, 15,345 (51.3%) were frail, and 2148 (7.2%) received osteoporosis treatment (median treatment duration 183.0 days). Patients who received treatment were younger (80.2 versus 82.2 years), female (86.5% versus 73.0%), and less frail (0.20 versus 0.22) than patients without treatment. During follow-up, 5079 (17.0%) patients experienced a subsequent fracture. Treatment with osteoporosis medications for >90 days compared with no treatment reduced the risk of fracture (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.82; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.68-1.00) overall. Results were similar in frail (HR = 0.85; 95% CI 0.65-1.12) and non-frail (HR = 0.80; 95% CI 0.61-1.04) patients but not significant. In conclusion, osteoporosis treatment >90 days was associated with similar trends in reduced risk of subsequent fracture in frail and non-frail persons. Treatment rates were very low, particularly among the frail. When weighing treatment options in frail older adults with hospitalized fractures, clinicians should be aware that drug therapy does not appear to lose its efficacy. © 2022 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Xiang J, Zhong W, Ou Y. Comparison of the Effect of Different Local Analgesia Administration Methods in Percutaneous Vertebroplasty: A Retrospective Cohort Study. Front Surg 2022; 9:769102. [PMID: 35402496 PMCID: PMC8990094 DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2022.769102] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2021] [Accepted: 02/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective Although various studies have described the methods of administering anesthesia during percutaneous vertebroplasty (PV) for treating osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs), there is still no consensus on the optimal treatment regimen. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of three application methods of local analgesia administration in PV for treating OVCFs. Methods A total of 96 patients with OVCFs were reviewed and divided into three groups (A: lidocaine, B: ropivacaine, C: lidocaine + ropivacaine). The visual analog scale (VAS), blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), blood oxygen saturation (BOS), and surgery time were recorded during the following different points: before puncture, during the puncture, cement injection, and 4-h after surgery. Results The mean age of the patients was 74.13 ± 7.02 years in group A, 70.47 ± 5.50 years in group B, and 73.07 ± 7.51 years in group C, without significant difference. No significant differences were found in sex, age, hospital stay, surgery time, blood loss, and cement volume of the patients. In the periods of before puncture and 4-h after surgery, the VAS in group C decreased significantly than that in the periods of the puncture, cement injection, and immediately after surgery. Overall, there were no significant differences in systolic BP, diastolic BP, HR, and BOS during the different periods among the groups except HR in the period of the puncture in group C, which was slower than that in other groups, and HR in the period of cement injection in group A, which was faster than the other two groups. A correlation was observed between the VAS and the periods of cement injection (r = 0.5358) and after surgery (r = 0.5775) in group C. Conclusion Compared with the other two methods, the use of lidocaine in combination with ropivacaine could effectively relieve intraoperative pain, making the patients feel more comfortable and experience better recovery.

Spinal Orthoses Prescription for Vertebral Fragility Fractures by Italian Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine Physicians: The SPIN-VER Survey. Healthcare (Basel) 2021; 9:healthcare9070892. [PMID: 34356276 PMCID: PMC8303444 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare9070892] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2021] [Revised: 07/12/2021] [Accepted: 07/13/2021] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Vertebral fragility fractures (VFFs) are the most common type of osteoporotic fractures, related to pain and disability. In this scenario, physical and rehabilitative medicine (PRM) physicians prescribe a patient-tailored rehabilitation plan, including spinal orthoses. However, there is a high heterogeneity in the clinical indications of spinal orthoses. Thus, the aim of this survey was to investigate common clinical practice in terms of the prescription of spinal orthoses. This nationwide cross-sectional survey recruited Italian PRM physicians commonly involved in the management of patients with VFFs. One hundred twenty-six PRM physicians completed the survey. The results showed that most PRM physicians prescribe spinal orthoses in outpatients suffering from VFFs (n = 106; 83.9%). The most prescribed spinal orthosis for acute VFF patients was the three-point rigid orthosis (n = 64; 50.8%), followed by the semirigid thoraco-lumbar orthosis (n: 20; 15.9%). However, most PRM physicians prescribed dynamic orthoses in outpatients with chronic VFFs (n = 66; 52.4%). Albeit that a correct management of VFFs is mandatory to improve pain and reduce disability, our findings highlighted uncertainty in the type of spinal orthosis prescription in both the acute and chronic VFF phase. Therefore, high-quality research trials are warranted to provide clear recommendations for the correct clinical management of VFF.

Bisphosphonate therapy after liver transplant improves bone mineral density and reduces fracture rates: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis. Transpl Int 2021; 34:1386-1396. [PMID: 33884669 DOI: 10.1111/tri.13887] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2021] [Revised: 03/17/2021] [Accepted: 04/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
To investigate the efficacy of bisphosphonates and compare oral and IV formulations on bone mineral density (BMD) and fracture incidence in post-orthotopic liver transplant (OLT) patients. Electronic databases were searched, and six RCTs and three cohort studies were included out of 711 articles. Main outcomes included post-OLT BMD changes, fracture incidence, and treatment adverse reactions. Pairwise meta-analysis was conducted for binary and continuous outcomes, while pooled fracture incidence utilized single-arm meta-analysis. Post-OLT fracture incidence was reported in nine studies (n = 591). Total fracture incidence was 6.6% (CI: 3.4-12.4%) in bisphosphonate group and 19.1% (CI: 14.3-25.1%) in calcium and vitamin D group. Total fractures were significantly lower in patients on bisphosphonate, compared to calcium and vitamin D (n = 591; OR = 0.037; CI: 0.18-0.77; P = 0.008). Overall fractures were significantly lower in the oral group (n = 263; OR = 0.26; CI: 0.08-0.85; P = 0.02) but not in the IV group (n = 328; OR = 0.45; CI: 0.16-1.26; P = 0.129). Both oral and IV bisphosphonates are effective in reducing fracture incidence post-OLT compared to calcium and vitamin D. Oral formulations may also have an advantage over IV in reducing bone loss and fracture incidence post-OLT.

Comparison of Percutaneous Kyphoplasty with or without Pedicle Screw Fixation in Osteoporotic Thoracolumbar Vertebral Fractures: A Retrospective Study. DISEASE MARKERS 2021; 2021:4745853. [PMID: 34306254 PMCID: PMC8263273 DOI: 10.1155/2021/4745853] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2021] [Revised: 05/21/2021] [Accepted: 06/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Background Osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures have become a great social burden due to the aging tendency of population. This study is aimed at comparing the clinical and radiological outcomes of percutaneous kyphoplasty with or without pedicle screw fixation in patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar fractures. Hypothesis. There is a difference in clinical outcomes between percutaneous kyphoplasty with pedicle screw fixation and percutaneous kyphoplasty. Methods This retrospective study included 87 patients who received percutaneous kyphoplasty with or without pedicle screw fixation between October 2015 and October 2017 at Ningbo No.6 Hospital and were followed for 2 years. A total of 40 patients received percutaneous kyphoplasty with pedicle screw fixation (PKPF group), and the other 47 patients had percutaneous kyphoplasty only (PKP group). The outcomes were measured using the visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Cobb angle (CA), and anterior vertebra height rate (AVHr), which were calculated at preoperative admission and each follow-up visit. Complications including postoperative back pain, refracture, and fixation failure were collected from medical records. Results There was no significant difference in baseline characteristics or preoperative data between the two groups (p < 0.05) but significantly better improvements in VAS, ODI, CA, and AVHr at 12- and 24-month follow-up visits in the PKPF group compared with those of the PKP group. 23 (48.9%) patients in the PKP group had complications, whereas only 5 (12.5%) patients in the PKPF group presented complications including 2 postoperative back pain and 1 fixation failure (p = 0.04). Conclusions PKPF obtained longer correction and better improvement in VAS, ODI, and CA in patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar vertebral fractures than PKP.

Abstract
Background: We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of zoledronic acid combined with percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in treating osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs). Methods: Eligible scientific articles published prior to July 2020 were retrieved from the PubMed, Springer, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane Library databases. The statistical analysis was performed with RevMan 5.1. Results: Three randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and 2 non-RCTs met the inclusion criteria. The present meta-analysis revealed that zoledronic acid combined with PKP is associated with a higher BMD, a better quality of life, less severe low back pain, and fewer additional vertebral body fractures than is percutaneous vertebral augmentation alone. Conclusions: Compared with PKP only, zoledronic acid combined with percutaneous vertebral augmentation is beneficial for OVCFs.
